Peju Alatise is a Nigerian mixed media artist and writer. Her talent extends to jewelry design, installation, architecture, furniture design and painting. Her work expresses her passion for the modern life of African women and their traditions. Well known in the art community in Nigeria, Peju’s work is certainly inspiring and evocative.

“As an artist, I have learned to become a medium for a viewer to observe through to attain a different perspective. Just as a pair of spectacles would either alter or enhance the wearer’s vision, I lend myself to an onlooker to see a subject matter through my own eyes to observe differently.” – Peju Alatise

    Peju is simply creative and a deep-thinking Nigerian lady. She understands how best to express what many women feel and would like to share together. I admire her and the level of her work.  Hope O.
